THE HEALTH OF A NATION. (1933). SIR GEORGE NEWMAN, the great health authority, in his annual report upon the health of the British people, says:— “As an instance in which there exists legitimate suspicion that a commercial process may involve a definite risk to health or debasement of nutritive value, I may cite the introduction of the new artificial colours and flavour?.” Thousands of people in New, Zealand buy and consume, and give to their children and guests, cordials and carbonated _ waters containing not only artificial. colours and flavours, but also diges-tion-destroying and dangerous preservatives, without which the liquid would soon become unfit for human consumption. Probably more than ninety per cent of the cordials consumed in Nev,' Zealand contain one or more of the above-mentioned adulterants. Beware of those marked “artificial” or “artificially coloured.” If you read on the label that they contain “Sulphur dioxide” or other harmful preservatives, which are added to prevent deterioration, you must realize and appreciate the exceptional quality and purity of the products manufactured by Thomsons, in which there are no artificial colours or flavours, and furthermore contain no preservatives of any kind whatever. Thomsons Fruit Cordials arc manufactured from pure fruit juices. THE SOUTHLAND TIMES.
